Group Recommends U. S. Arms Action
NEW YORK (JTA)—"The United States should shed its hesitation about becoming an arms supplier to the Middle East." a report on Israel, issued today by the Foreign Policy Association, recommends.
The report was written by Dr. Nadav Safran, associate professor of government at Harvard University and a member of the staff of the Harvard Center for Middle Eastern Studies.
Declaring that war between the Arabs and Israel is "unlikely," the report said that the prospects of re
solving the problerns of Arab Israeli hostility seem at the mo¬ ment to be worse that they were 16 years ago. However, it adds, "the chances of checking dangerous manifestations of that hosiUlity seem to be brighter now."
Emphasizing that the borders be¬ tween the Arab states and Israel "have been relatively quiet since 1957" and that, with few exceptions, shooting incidents have been suc¬ cessfully localized, the report points out'that the Arab boycott of foreign firms doing business with Israel "has been slowly losing its effec¬ tiveness."
"But," the report continues, 'there are problems to be watched. In 1964, the second Arab summit con¬ ference made plans to go ahead with the diversion of- the Jordan's tributaries, the conference of non- aligned nations in Cairo adopted a resolution supporting the Arab cause in Palestine, and plans were started for an Egyptian-Iraqi union. Israel's reaction to these plans will depend a great deal on the position taken by the United States and other Western powers."
The report also proposes some "careful, limited measures" that the U. S. might adopt to reduce tensions In the Arab-Israeli conflict. One recommendation is to promote a large-scale economic development program for Jordan, providing opportunities for jobs agd self-ad¬ vancement which may alleviate the refugee problem by inducing the refugees to leave their camps and try to rebuild their lives.
"In another 16 years the refugee problem might be on its way to solution instead. of becoming more aggravated than it is," Dr. Safran predicts.
Imperative That The Chronicle's Deadline For "Copy" Be Met
Recently the extent of "late copy" coming into the Chronicle's office on Saturday, Monday, and even on Tuesday has been overwhelming, and the amount has been increasing rather than diminishing.
For many reasons the Chronicle cannot possibly operate effectively on this basis. Newspaper production involves a number of deadlines that must be met. The very first dead¬ line is that for the copy that goes to make up the paper. Not only the paper, but also the readers, suffer when "copy" deadline is not met.
In short, in order to do an effec¬ tive job of putting the paper to¬ gether, it is necessary that we ad¬ here strictly to the deadlines estab¬ lished herein.
The Chronicle's deadline for copy is noon on the Friday preceding publication date. Copy received later than that time will have litUe, if any chance of appearing in the paper.

COLUMBUS JEWS TO PROTEST TREATMENT OF JEWS IN THE SOVIET
Three million Jews are living in persecution in the Soviet Union. The organized Jewish community of Columbus will go on record in protest of this intolerable situation.
With a concerted effort on the part of the professional and voluntary resources of the Jewish organizations, the first rally in protest of Anti- Semitism ever to be held in the city of Columbus will take place Sunday, May 23, at 2:30 p.m., at the Agudas Achim Synagogue. Public Protest Rallies are being
held in hundreds of communitie.s throughout the United States in an effort to impress the officials of the Soviet Union with our con¬ cern. The American Jew will not remain complacent while his brother lives in tyranny. ¦
It is now shockingly clear that the Kremlin is committed to a policy of trying to do what centuries of violent persecution of the Jews the world over have always failed to accompUsh—erradicate the Jew¬ ishness of the 3.000.000 Jews who live in the Soviet Union.
For most Russians life is getting somewhat better. For the Jew it is

Dr. B. W. Abramson
"With the aid of Israel Bonds." Dr. Abramson Said. "Israel has reached the point where economic independence may be regarded as a realistic possibility for the not too distant future. An average in¬ crease of 10% in its annual gross national product has made Israel one of the fastest growing countries in the world."
At the same time, however, Dr. Abramson emphasized that Israel is
5 confronted with the need to carry on a far-ranging development pro-
, gram in the unpopulated and un¬ developed regions df the country to provide for the absorption of a substantial flow of new immigrants. Israel must establish new indus¬ tries in outlying areas to provide homes and jobs for newcomers who
, cannot be settled in the densely populated urban centers. Intensified indutrializaUon. wjth the aid of Israel Bonds is the answer, he added.
"In the next tive years." Dr. Abramson explained. "Israel ex¬ pects to have a population of about 3,000.000, represenUng through im¬ migration a natural increase of some 500.000 over the present
